Minister’s Corner: Dare to be different

God said, as is recorded in Leviticus 11:44, “For I am the Lord your God; ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves and ye shall be holy; for I am holy.” This is a call from God to His people to be different from the world.
In Christ, we have an example to live by. And in Christ, we have the power to live. Once you take responsibility for where you are in life, and once you make an effort to ignite your relationship with God’s love, Jesus Christ - through the very same power that raised Him from the dead - will fuel and energize your life and enable you to live a life pleasing to Him. It is a result you can expect.
John Ruskin said, “The highest reward for a person’s toll is not what they get for it, but what they become by it.” That is how holiness works in your life; that is God’s greatest reward. You will become the person He made you to be if today you are willing to dare to be different.
